In Journey of Trees, we find layers of fire, family, fruition, failure. Life is a journey, and trees can help us and/or show us where we've been and where we might go. These poems are both cautionary and celebratory. What has been felled-trees or a marriage, a dream or a body-might rise again in some other form or direction.
Trees talk. If we listen, we can learn from them. And if we revere them, spend time with them, we can become more spiritually enriched. In fact, trees are our better half -taking in carbon monoxide and releasing oxygen. Photosynthesis is a Greek word meaning light and putting together. In other words, if trees weren't here, we wouldn't be either. These poems of Susan Landgraf also have a way of putting things together and shedding light.
